[quote name="Jackson"]i never saw this splendid mate of mine before



Gibson Les Paul Menace



The Gibson Les Paul Menace represents brute force and raw power.



With take-no-prisoners looks and face-melting tone, the Les Paul Menace delivers over-the-top metal performance like no other. Not for the faint of heart.






Image



Gibson Les Paul Menace main features include:



* Brass fist inlay and tribal body routings

* Mahogany body and maple top

* Neck - Species: Mahogany, Profile: 1960 Slim taper

* Ebony fretboard

* Special smoky-coil 490R & 498T brass stud humbuckers

* Available in Flat Black only







:grin: :ra:[/quote]

If it wasn't for the inlay and those things beside the bridge and the switch, I'd touch it but alas. :oldryan:

[quote name="hbw"]I'd like to put me together ein Warmoth custom.



Soloist body:

Jackson headstock

With a floyd and a (direct-mount) Dimarzio X2N. None of that tone/volume/toggle shit either, because A) I like the idea of nothing being in between the pickup and the input jack and B) knobs and switches ruin the fuck out of the appearance of a guitar.[/quote]





So I actually looked everything up and did a price-out on this, and here's the verdict:


  • $295: Body

    $425: Neck

    $180: Original Floyd Rose

    $__4: Warmoth Peghead Decal

    $__9: Output Jack

    $_60: Schaller Mini Locking Tuners

    $_80: Dimarzio X2N Pickup

    _____

    $1053 total


This is actually very, very feasible. :greenie:

Yeah, for that kind of money one should be an immediate virtuoso upon picking it up! There are even more expensive classical guitars ($35,000 for a certain current model, well over $100,000 for a historic collectible), but I'd like this one. The sound and workmanship are awesome.

Oh yes a Sunn Model T or an Orange Rockerverb 50 would be awesome. I guess the Orange OR15 is more in my ballpark money wise.

Btw Zim, I'll be building a sunn model t preamp pedal soon. With all the features the amp has except for the tubes. If you're interested I could build you one too.

Gotta finish a reverb pedal first.

i'd be super tempted to take you up on that but i don't actually have an amp i could use it with. my guitar rig is an axe fx with a frfr monitor. doesn't really lend itself to pedals i think

right now, the place i live in does not allow me to have a full amp head and 4x12 for playing so i'm stuck with a mooer amp modeler (which is more than enough for my needs, really)

however, once i do get a place of my own and room for a full amp setup, this is the first amp that comes to mind

hughes & kettner triamp mark 3 - probably the most fruital and oddly satisfying high gain tone that i personally had a chance to experience first hand

I have terminal GAS, so am still looking for:

A 9-string, Ibanez RG9QM ideally for the maple top and pickups
A Les Paul type, maybe PRS 245 or a good Epiphone LP Studio
An Ironbird with a reverse headstock
An IC400 Iceman - dream would be the Giger Iceman but yeah, realistically an IC400
A Washburn MG-72, one of the ones without the naff clear scratchplate (I'm a Washburn fan and I love the early/mid gloryhole era MG series)
A Washburn EC-36 in the black splatter finish
A fretless 7- or 8-string guitar just to see WTF I could do with one
A rosewood-board Tele

Why the fuck a 9 string?
It's so low it hardly has any output or definition. It's just a flubby sound.

Fretless is pretty cool though but you need to play notes like a violin or cello to sustain them.

I dunno, I've heard quite a few people get a good clear sound out of the bottom string; you just have to use a sufficiently heavy gauge for the tension to be right, probably .088/.090 or so (I use a .072 for the low F# on my 8-string). I have a 7-string fretless bass so I'm used to smaller-gauge strings with a fretless, and I reckon it could be fun especially for my M87 space ambient stuff.

Maybe check the way you string the guitar. There are some tricks there to increase the tension.

i'm being a little bit of a baby right now because i had some d'addario strings i really liked but i snapped one and put on some ernie balls which i don't think i like anymore :redneck:, i really hate the unwound 3rd string for how i'm playing these days. i do love tuning super low on a 6 string, makes me feel old school like carcass or cryptopsy :grim:

The local luthier is an official distributor of GHS which is why i’m using them now just because of convenience. I’m a d’addario hard-on bearer for the longest time as well.
